<p>[QUOTE="joesmom, post: 30026, member: 934"]Probably my most aggravating problem with dealers at a show is that they seem to dismiss me. They tend to think that since I'm younger than than the average collector that I see there AND that I'm a woman that I'm not worth their time. That apparently I'm not a knowledgable collector simply because I have ovaries. I can't tell you how many times I've had to speak up and step forward when they were about to skip over me and go on to someone else when it's my turn. Or they will ignore me completely while trying to talk to my husband. When he replies that he's not the collector, that i am and to talk to me, they tend to look a bit confused. Then I take great pleasure in watching their face when they hear me talk about what I'm looking for. The look of shock is usually priceless.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
